The extended Huygens-Fresnel principle is used to derive an explicit expression for the image plane illuminance distribution of an extended object with an arbitrary luminance emittance distribution. The combined simultaneous effects of attenuation, background luminance, and atmospheric turbulence are given. A quantitative comparison of these effects is made, and their contribution to the over-all loss in resolution is given. In particular, we derive a quantitative expression for the point spread function of the combined atmospheric-optical system. Explicit expressions are derived for both the atmospheric-optical system modulation transfer function (MTF) and image plane modulation. Numerical results for the image plane modulation are presented for imaging both up and down along an atmospheric path under various viewing conditions.
扩展的惠更斯 - 菲涅尔原理用于推导具有任意发光率分布的扩展物体像平面照度分布的显式表达式。给出了衰减、背景亮度和大气湍流的综合同时效应。对这些效应进行了定量比较，并给出了它们对整体分辨率损失的贡献。特别地，我们推导了组合大气光学系统点扩散函数的定量表达式。推导了大气光学系统调制传递函数（MTF）和像平面调制的显式表达式。给出了在各种观察条件下沿大气路径向上和向下成像时像平面调制的数值结果。
